Configuring Authentication for End-User Enrollment
In the Web Access section, check the "Enable end-entity interaction" option if
3.
you want end entities to be able to interact with the selected Registration
Manager via the HTTPS port; leave it unchecked to disable end-entity
interaction with the server.
Note that if you disable end-entity interaction, the Network tab still shows the
HTTPS port and allows you to configure it (see "Configuring Port Numbers"
on page 374). However, you should know that the server ignores this port.
To save your changes, click Save.

The CMS configuration is modified. If the changes you made require you to
restart the server, you will be prompted accordingly. In that case, restart the
server.

Step 7. Turn on Automated Notification

Both the Certificate Manager and the Registration Manager can send
certificate-issuance notification to end users. For details on turning this feature on,
see , "Setting Up Automated Notifications."

Step 8. Test Your Authentication Setup

To test whether your end users can successfully enroll for a certificate using the
authentication method you've set up:
Open a web browser window.
1.
Go to the end-entity interface for the enrollment authority you configured.
2.
The default URL is as follows:
https://<hostname>:<end_entity_HTTPS_port>
http://<hostname>:<end_entity_HTTP_port>
In the Enrollment tab, open the enrollment form you customized.
3.
Fill in all the values and submit the request.
